Browns, Tigers End HOWLEYMEN Harrismen Also to Visit With Twin Bill Saturday—Nationals Weak at Home—Hadley Fa BY JOHN l.’lll.l.ll.

New York and sector. The remainder of the sf for the Johnson band is t the order mentioned. Dan 3 series of four games, to tay her Bengals on Saturday will play a double- game set that winds up a week fr This season the Nationals seem to have chased to cover the St. Louis jinx that pursued them so many years. They actually are leading the Browns in the inter- club series to date. Of the 11 games between the Capital and Mound City outfits, the former has won six. And the Nationals have to their credit a_series played in | St. Louis, too. Base ball history for them. They haven't been successful against | the Tigers, however. During the first swing West the Johnson band was licked in two of three games played with the Harrismen, and Bucky's bunch tri-| umphed to the same extent here in June. During the last trip West, | though, the Nationals played to an even | break with the Tigers in four tilts. And | the Detroits haven't been setting the world afire lately. Poor at Home This Year. Winning ball games on their own lot has been almost a3 difficult as winning | abroad for the Nationals this year.| They have played 44 games in Griffith Stadium and won only 18. On foreign ficlds they had 47 engagements to a decision and triumphed in only 17. The Nationals have managed to out- | play two of their rivals on the field | here—the New York and Boston clubs. The Yankees have been licked in four of seven starts at the Georgia avenue ball yard and the Red Sox in five of | seven. But the Athletics have toppled the Johnson band eight times in nine | games here. The West, has a decided edge over the Washington outfit in local engagements. Only the Browns have plaved to a draw, the Nationals splitting the four- game set staged here in June. The Tigers, as already mentioned. grabbed the better part of their series here, while the White Sox show a record of four wins and_three losses for their battling in the Capital, and the Indians have won five times and lost only twice in the Griffith Stadium jousting. Hadley to Face Browns. | Trving Hadley is to be tried again as arting pitcher, according to Man- | Jehnson. | | EVENTH place. That's where the Nationals now stand in| the American League for the | first time in years this late in the season. They fell from sixth place yesterday when the Indians with a nine-inning rally scored a 9 to 6 victory to sweep the three- game series, while the White Sox, erstwhile occupants of the seventh berth, idled in Philadelphia. The difference in the standings | of the White Sox and the Nationals is slight, but enough to put the Nationals down. Chicago’s four-figure standing reads .3854, while Washington’s reads .3846. As usual, the Nationals yester- day gave their foes a great battle throughout the greater part of the fray, but their pitcher weakened at the finish and a tie that had existed for four innings was knocked all to pieces. Bob Burke opened fire for the home side, but was unsteady from the start and gave way to Lloyd Brown after yielding a double to the first Indian up in the fifth inning. ' Brown got along well until the; ninth when he was raked for five | hits and four markers. Shoffner Stops Griffs. ‘There was nothing steady about. | the early Indian pitchers. Joe Shaute's left-handed spell was | missing and the Nationals drove him to cover before a retirement was made in the second inning. They then treated Wesley Ferreil roughly and he retired before man was put out in the fourth. But they had failed to take full advantage of these wabbly hurlers, for despite eight hits and four passes off them Johnson’s charges ! had seven left on the runway in the first four frames. After Fer- rell, Milburn Shoffner, a recruit, took the hill and gave the home side but five safeties the remain- . der of the way. The Indians collected 15 hits, seven of them off Burke.

Hadley's per- formance after relieving Sem .Jones in last PFriday’s game against Cleveland caused Johnson to believe the big fellow is ready once more to show some pitch- ing worth. Hadley assumed the mound burden in the second session, after the Tribe had knocked Jones' offerings to | all corners of the lot, and allowed only | three hits over a six-and-two-thirds in- nings’ route before giving way to a pinch batter, Bump issued one pass, which, unfortunately, became a run. but as it turned out the Indians already had sewed up the game. Hadley, by the way, again is troubled with ringworm, the same affection that troubled him two seasons ago. However. it is more annoying than serious, and is not Jikely to lessen his pitching ability. There's another ringworm vie- tim on the Nationals’ squad, too. Coach Pat Gherrity has a touch of it. and it makes him very uncomfortable. But Pat will stick to his task, despite this. Others of the Nationals ailing are Pred Marberry and Ad Liska, pitchers. Their tonsils are kicking up, and both | players are under treatment by the club physician. Marberry had an attack of tonsilitis early in the season, but rid himself of it quickly. Liska's case seems | more severe than Marberry’s, and Ad | may be kept out of action a few days. Bluege Out, But So Is Knee, Ossie Bluege attended yesterday games, but not in uniform. Tt was t first time at the park for Ossie since the club returned from the West, He says his trick knee, which went back on him in Chicago nearly two weeks ago, is still quite sore, even though he is able to walk without a cane. Ossie has been undergoing treatment for the injured joint at his home, and expects to submit to an operation soon. There’ll be no operating done, however, until most of the fluid now in the joint is absorbed. After that the surgeons expect to remove the bit of cartilage that has been torn from the joint.

While such an operation is not con- sidered especially serious, healing is a| matter of much time. So the Nationals | are not apt to get much, if anything. from Bluege the remainder of this homer of the year when two were on base and Falk his_eleventh homer with none on. Falk also got two doubles while Fonseca and Hodapp each made three hits for the Tribe. The Nationals gleaned 13 hits for 17 bases off the Indian mound trio, Joe Judge swatting four for a perfect day. Two singles and a double with | a fumble by Myer chucked in helped the Indians to three runs right off the reel, but in their first three batting turns the Nationals managed to forge ahead. Judge’s single, Rice’s pass and a brace of sacrificial lofts meant a tally in round one. Sin- gles by Cronin and Spencer chased Shaute at the outset of the sec- ond.

Falk's homer over the right field wall, Hodapp’s triple and Gard- ner’s infield erasure netted the Tribe two runs and the lead again in the fourth, but in their half of this round the Nationals drew up to a tie. Judge doubled.and Rice got a single with a grounder to Fonseca by outspeeding Ferrell to first base. This moved Judge to third and when Ferrell let Fonseca's throw get by Joe con- tinued home. This brought Shof- fner to the hill for the Tribe and the Nationals were checked im- mediately. Tribe Bags Game. Shoffner was on first base with one out when Brown blew with a bang in the Tribal ninth. Morgan doubled, Joe Sewell singled and Averill got his homer with a smash to deepest right-center. T, The Nationals managed to get back one of these runs with West's single,” his unmolested stroll to second and Cronin’s single before Fonseca made a spectacular one- hand grab of Spencer’s low liner and doubled Cronin off first base.

HE New York Yankees, whose runaway victories in the Ameri- can League were the despair of all Tivals, are getting a taste of | their own medicine these days, and it’s a bit doubtful if they like it. In the last three American League pennant drives contenders used to play .700 base ball. only to find that not only could they not gain an inch, but actual- 1y lost ground to the Yankee steam- roller that over long stretches could play at better than an .800 clip. The same thing is holding true agatn this season. except. that. the Yanks have glelded their accustomed *Simon Legree™ role to Connie Mack’s Philadelphia Ath- letics. The Yanks of 1929 pull up half & game one day only to watch the A’s their Jead the next by winning a double bill or by winning while the | Yanks lose. It's all most disheartening to Miller Huggins, just as it was to man- | agers of would-be contenders when the Yankee machine was running wild. Ruth’s Homer Wins. Through the enforced idleness of the Athletics, the Yanks found an opportu- nity to whittle away a little of the A's lead yesterday, and just barely took ad- vantage of it. It took a home run by the one and only George Herman Ruth to enable the Yankees to down the St. Louis Browns, 7 to 6, in 12 innings and cut the Athletics' lead to 10 games. With the score tied at six-all in the twelfth, Ruth, the first man at bat, drove the ball into the bleachers for his twenty-fourth homer of the season. Lou Gehrig had hit his tweny-fifth homer n ! the first inning with one on. | ‘The Browns walloped Johnson and | | runs in he first five innings, but Tom Zachery stopped them dead and got credit for his sixth straight win. Alded by a home Tun and two singles by Marty McManus, Detrolt’s rookie | pitcher, Kyle Graham, won his first| game in the American League, beating | the Boston Red Sox. 5 to 3. Graham gave up only nine hits and blanked the | Sox atter the third inning. Cubs Increase Lead. In the National League the Chicago Cubs increased thelr lead over Pitts- | burgh to two and a half games by, trouncing the Phillies again, 7 to 2, for their seventh successive victory. Guy Bush won his fourteenth game of the season agamnst a single defeat, giving the Phils six hits. The Cubs won the game in the third, bunching four hits with a base on balls and an error Zor six runs. Riggs Stephenson drove in three of the runs with a home run. John McGraw's New York Giants pounded Alexander, Frankhouse and Hallahan for 19 hits and beat St. Louis, 10 to 5. Mel Ott got his twenty-eighth homer of the season. Cincinnati ran its winning streak to five by beating Brooklyn in both ends of a double bill, 4 to 3 and 7 to 5. The Reds buncheds their five hits off Wil- liam Watson Clark to good advantage in the first game. In the second Dazzy Vance was hit hard and retired for a pinch batsman after pitching the first seven innings. RECORDS OF GRIFFMEN Battins. 2b.3b HR.S,8B.RBLPet. 2 m;so [ fla 1.348 . AB. R.

This happened to be the sixth big tournament against fine competition that Mehlhorn has won in the Jast nine months, There is no other game where timing, touch, Juck, the breaks of the game in general can 'shift and change as suddenly as they do in golf. Suppose Bobby Jones had failed to hole that 12-foot putt on the final green of the last round? Figure the difference it would have made in the career of the open champion and figure the difference it would have made to Espinoza. All on the final half-inch turn of the ball. A Fairly Safe Record. “HERE was a time when it looked as 1f the Athletics were out to grab off the old Cup mark of 1906. Without looking into the official figures, now un- der dust, the Cub mark was 116 victories against 36 defeats. No other ball club has ever come close to winning 116 games in one year. The Athletics may come close, but they will hardly crack this mark unless they can use Bob Grove every day. They still have. more than two months left in which to operate on the enemy, but they are still several vay from 116 victories. It can , but it isn't a good bet, even with the start they got and the big bulge they have had on the rest of their league. The Cub slaughter of 1806 was terrific. That was the year when the famous “Tinker to Evers to Chance” song hit began to sweep the country. ~Orvie Overall was at his best. Miner Brown and his famous three fingers were also around.
